And why Not Add even more to this already fine solution....

Instead of a Empty template for phpchatsysoff, i just copied the phpchatsyson box, with a URL to enable it, instead of the iframe.

Now for people who want to help me test this bad boy out, so we can develop a full hack to release based upon it...


Now, I couldn't have done this, or wouldn't have without the existing hack from Stasik @ https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ight=phpmychat ...

So to get started like I did... You must download phpmychat v0.14.5, and try to get his hack installed, so that you can use vb's users instead of the phpmychat's users.

His implementation, is external window only, and as the 214 replys summarize, it's not for the weak hearted.

After you get that working.... We're ready to start my vB hack(s) to get it 100% integrated...

I've just got a few more things I want to do to it too....

The AdminCP setting for Global Enable/Disable for the Internal system ONLY.

and the private channels being restricted by usergroup.... which is going to be a bit diffucult.... BUT they way i'm thinking of designing it.....

There will be a new menu in the AdminCP... Where you can have lets say 10 channel fields, and a checkbox for public or private.... and if the private is selected, it then looks at another field that basically looks for 'and require access to forumid="xx"'...

i.e.

The CP menu would have:

Channel Name: --------- Public or Private -------- Require Forum ID
=============================================
Boardname ---------------Public --------------------- None
Moderators ---------------Private -------------------- 12
Admins ---------------------Private---------------------13

Where forum 12 = my Moderators forum, where only the moderator's usergroup has access... and 13 = the admin's forum, where only the admin usergroup has access...

so you can continue to do your security as vb designed, but also allowed to use that check, to secure your Chat channels as well!

any updates on this baby?? :)

All I can say for this hack is that it's excellent, superb, and in french Il est tres bien ;)

Just thought I should spice it up with french, not that I am one, just happen to know the language :)

Sorry for the slacking...

I've had more computer drama then anyone should ever have to deal with, all in one week...

It's taking a bit to get back on my feet... and i'll be sure to resume this project again in a bit.

That's ok humble, we all understand that real life is far more important than the vitual life :)

We all will be waiting for when you decide you are ready to continue this project.

Have a nice day :)

I'm looking high and low for a chat system that intergrates with Vb. So far none is complted. :(

Can't wait till this is released! Looks amazing!!!

sweet, that hack kicks ass! I know my users would die for that :cool:

yeah sounds excellent m8
